Plenty of time... get it inside.

 

[NEVolFan]

Good idea to pour water on the floor.

I think this team is wore out from a long season... they ma be an early out from the NCAAs.

Ball game.

 

[Tin Man]

We wuz robbed...

 

[Orangeslice13]

Well damnit.
I’m at 11 min in the 1st and a buddy text “tough loss”.

So that sucks but I’m still gonna watch.

Was a bad call, Barnes was on his ass

 

[Orangeslice13]

Williams has not been good.

I’m not sure when you said this but at the half I agree

 

[Orangeslice13]

Is it just me or doe GW get hit in the face more than anyone else in basketball

 

[Orangeslice13]

12:05 left up 5

 

[Orangeslice13]

Alright
So dvr quit in OT.


Someone tell me what happened at the end

 

[95 Vol Alum]

We got the ball tied with 8 seconds or so to go. Turner took an ill advised 3 with over 3 seconds left on the clock. Williams' face fouled LSU player's shoulder on the rebound with 0.6 sec to go. They made both FT. Vols got a look but missed the buzzer beater.

 

[Orangeslice13]

Ok
Watched it.
I felt like the refs did a good job in this game.
Not sure how you call that fowl that far away from the basket at the end.
It is what it is.
GW was terrible in this one. I think we’re.....and in mostly GW are physically beat up at the moment. Need to find a way to get healthy before Tournament time.



Go Vols!

Thanks.
I agree though. Our last shot was rushed.

I would disagree with the refs being good. They were consistently rewarding LSU drives to the basket with contact fouls. I think we got a couple that went our way on the other end. 4 of our 16 FTA were on flagrant fouls.

he does and if he wants to play NBA he better as hell start making some 3 balls - he doesnt have the size to play down low - teams are finding that out and adjusting to it

 

[508mikey]

Where was that Williams all game?

been exposed - doesnt have the size to play down low and teams have adjusted to it --- they know he wont take a 3 making him easy to leave open outside the paint

You think he can adjust before the tournament

Good was probably a stretch. I felt they weren’t horrible. In the Kentucky game I think they changed how the game was played to the point of a Tennessee win being impossible.

Tennessee should have still won this game

 

[508mikey]

doubt it -- he should have worked on it all off season

 

[volwindy]

Missed the game. What a tough loss with the fact they lost on ft's.

 

[tnuhcvols]

One could say we missed the free throws that cost us the game. I still think the call at the end was out of line, and we should have gone to 2nd OT.

LVs at 4 on ESPN2.
